nickd Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 http://rolandconnect.com Ends tomorrow (June 28) at 8am UK time. Looks like it might be amplifiers and no keyboards though (just taking a wild guess from the 'amplifiers' headline). Anyone heard any rumours?

RABid Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 My other guess would be something to compete with the many active PA speakers that are on the market. This post edited for speling. My Sweetwater Gear Exchange Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Towne Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I really hope they recycle the VK-7 organ tones again. Those things never go out of style.

Dave Ferris Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I'd like to be a fan of Roland stuff. Their pianos sound very good when you play them solo or when recorded- but in a live group setting, they never seem to work out for me. https://soundcloud.com/dave-ferris https://www.youtube.com/@daveferris2709 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opinions and recommendations for or against are one thing, but I personally find that the allowance of nothing more than snobbish effrontery towards a respected manufacturers product, one that thousands of pros own, use and like, on a forum lead by highly respected professionals and sponsored by a major music industry publication to be less than professionally courteous and over the line.

kanker. Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I'll add - I have owned a Roland D-5, a D-50, an M-480, a JV-80, a VS-840, an A-90, and an XV-88. I have also and currently use a Boss fender Deluxe pedal on the road with artists like Delbert McClinton and The Fabulous Thunderbirds. I honestly respect the creative minds at Roland - I have spent a hell of a lot of money on their products. The amplifiers are shit. Period. They make incredible instruments. They make terrible amplifiers. Terrible is being incredibly kind BTW.... A ROMpler is just a polyphonic turntable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
